June 25, 2016 We stayed in the library for an hour and talked about various topics, including our hobbies, favorite subjects, and almost everything in between. But Sierra revealed something about her family that I had not expected her to share; I had kept my lips shut throughout her story, just listening to her. Sierra did not grow up with her biological parents, and she has never met them. Since the day she was born, Sierra had lived with her grandparents, and when she turned 10, she moved back and forth between her different relatives. I never asked Sierra anymore if she had any knowledge of her parents' place or what were the reason why they abandoned her since I could see in her eyes how difficult it was for her when she told her story, even though she didn't go into details. I'm just relieved that she feels comfortable opening out to me. When she said that, all I could do was embrace her while her te

September 01, 2021 I spent two hours driving back from Sorella City to Camden Town because of excessive traffic. Whenever I think of the email I received from an anonymous person claiming to be Sierra's killer, I'm overcome with a rush of adrenaline that causes my brow to drip with sweat and my heart to thump fast. I didn't hesitate to risk my life once again for Sierra, and I repeated under my breath multiple times that if I see that fucktard again, I'm going to murder him. When I finally arrived at this place, I opened and kicked the door of my car frantically. Even though it's been years since my last visit, my feelings for this place are the same as they were then. By the time twilight arrives at 5:30, I'll be ready to shoot his fucking face. It was already 5 PM when I checked my wristwatch. I'm not sure why I didn't stop in front of the Meadow Woods Library, but there was a part of me that wondered if it had been demolished or something a long time ago. Perhaps

July 01, 2016We're in the theater room, where students from various strands of the twelfth grade will watch films created by each section of the Arts and Designs strand. Sierra informed me that their movie would compete with other sections of the same genre as theirs, and the winner will receive an award for the best film and, of course, will give them high credits that can help them in college. Their film's theme is romance, and Sierra is one of the key stars as well as one of the people that covered a song for their background music, which she just told me earlier this morning that I didn't have much time to react and congratulate her for having the lead part when the bell suddenly rang and the teachers lead as to the theater room.Sierra and I only had a little time to spend together during the weekdays and even on weekends following that confession because

September 07, 2021"I spotted you and your new girl in that hidden library, and you seemed to be having a serious conversation, so I didn't bother going in. But maybe tomorrow? No, not at all. I've changed my mind, Archer; I don't want to meet up anymore, and I can't promise anything either. You know what I mean."I stared at the letter flashing on my computer screen, reading and remembering every word from the username @iamthepersonwhokilled.sierra's alias. I'm not sure why his final letter kept playing with my head. He gave me this letter when I returned home after driving Kinsey to her condo, and that was the last time I heard from him after he ditched me in the library. Or maybe he was telling the truth and had been watching me talk to Kinsey the whole time. But what caused him to change his mind so abruptly? The longer I stare at his letter; the m

"Uh... Hello." I spoke flatly while chewing the side of my cheek. I put my hands in my jeans pockets and attempted to smile at her, but I couldn't because I was still angry over what she had done to me."Hey, Maevis. Do you need anything?" Sierra stepped into our talk. Maybe she can sense my anxiety growing beneath me; I'm not sure why, but I didn't like this Maevis girl even before the first time I first met her. Even though our first meeting was such a disaster, she left me with a poor impression of her for the rest of my life.Maevis barely looked at Sierra before shrugging shyly and saying, "Not really, I really just want to apologize to him—to you, Archer." She stated it abruptly and fixed her gaze on mine, which threw me off guard. My eyes twitched in reaction, and I felt as if my tongue had been removed. She spoke again when I couldn't say a word.
